MY FAMILY IS EVERYTHING.
I'm mom to my beautiful son and yep, you know what that means— my life is action-packed 24-7! My son is my heart and greatest joy— I'm so blessed to be his mom. Our family loves animals— we have a sweet Brindle Dutch Shepherd-Boxer pup, a Brindle Pittie, and a sassy black kitty. There's never a dull moment at our house! If my son isn't climbing the interior walls of our home, you can find us cooling down in the pool and soaking up some rays in the summer— swimming is our favorite summertime activity. Gotta drench that 120-degree Phoenix summer heat with LOADS of agua, baby! Then, come September, it's time to decorate the house with ghosts, tombstones, spiderwebs, and skeletons! We LOVE Halloween— it's our favorite holiday!
Even though I was born in Naperville, IL, I'm a Southern girl. I grew up in Atlanta and Birmingham. I'm all about that Southern hospitality—"Yes, ma'am" and "ya'll" are staples in my vocabulary.
SOBERMOMLIFE
A HUGE part of my life is SOBERMOMLIFE. I started SOBERMOMLIFE in September 2018. I owe my life to sobriety. I wouldn't have my beautiful son if I weren't sober— guaranteed.
I LOVE ANYTHING SPICY!
Hot sauce, spices, peppers— I love everything hot and spicy! It's worth the pain! hahaha!
I ONLY DRINK ALMOND MILK OR COCONUT MILK.
No moo-cow milk for me (or my son). I don't want to be drinking sadness or anxiety (from the cows)— or hormones...no thank you. I'll stick with nuts.
And yes, I also drink water, tons of coffee and LaCroix sparkling water—specifically, the pamplemousse flavor.
KETCHUP GOES ON PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING.
Yep, I said it. Ketchup is delicious. I put ketchup on scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes, grilled chicken— a lot of stuff. It makes me happy. My son loves it, too. Big surprise, right?
NO RED MEAT OR PORK FOR THIS GIRL.
Nope. No cow burgers or oink bacon for me. I did eat oink bacon and have some burgers when I was pregnant. And I really don't eat chicken and turkey that much either. I'd eat fish more, but I don't like to cook it— too stinky. And, I don't like to cook.
I LOVE ANIMALS.
We already have a dog and a cat, but if I could save every homeless cat and dog I would! Plus, I would save all the animals that needed to be rescued from abusive owners. I've always had pets since I was a little girl. I think it's so important to know how to take care of an animal and how to treat an animal with kindness. My son loves animals, too and he is so wonderful with our pets. He takes such great care of them because I'm teaching him how to do so. I'm so proud of him.
I LOVE BEING A MOM.
I love being a mom, but some days I feel like a soggy towel that's been slug up against a wall— ya'll know what I'm talkin' about. It's the hardest, most wonderful job in the world, but I still need a vacay to the beach. I love my son so very much. He is such a huge blessing. I'm so grateful I get to be his mom.
I LOVE DOING RESEARCH.
I research pretty much everything. I love googling topics, then getting lost in wormholes as I read article after article, learning more and more about the subject matter at hand. My profession fits me very well since I enjoy mentally dissecting every minute detail of all the things. Oh, and I love being silly, too. It's perfect that I had a boy— it was meant to be.
